Brayden's life is a beautiful disaster. After finally being adopted by a wealthy woman and her family, his entire life is turned upside down. The New Yorker boy who's only lived in small one-bedroom apartments and tiny houses is now living in a Barrington, Rhode Island mansion. The boy who has never walked inside an actual school is now attending a private charter academy. The boy who has always been a nobody is now a somebody, but the heart wrenching experiences of his childhood follow him day by day as he lives his new life. On the other hand, Collie's life is perfect. Being beautiful, rich, and popular was an easy job to say the least. She never dealt with scarce food supply, financial issues, or abandonment, which is everything Brayden has struggled with throughout his life. To anyone, Collie had it all. When Brayden suddenly turns up at Constance PCA, it was almost crush at first sight for Collie. A budding romance ignites, something that is forbidden due to the hatred of Brayden's new sister, Ursanne, but as the two grow as a couple, Collie forces her way into the secrets of Brayden Palmer's life, the secrets he calls his Splinters.

She didn't plan any of this. She didn't plan out the adventure. She didn't plan Sawyer Fawkin, the boy nearly as dangerous as her, to ask her to join his journey to nowhere. She didn't plan to run from the cops as the two of them graffitied buildings, or accidentally trespassing a property to go night swimming, or T-P-ing someone's house for the hell of it, or rocking out to an All Time Low song with him, "him" being the boy that clashed with her tremendously on so many levels. She didn't plan on liking him and his stupid white hair and his badass piercings and his rude, obnoxious, endearing personality. And she certainly never planned on falling in love.

"She had this thought. Not about choking hazards on children's toys or fatal car crashes, but a thought about how Skylar was not entirely a person. He was more like an ocean with violent currents; one of the seven seas with skin and bones and teeth. He was waterlogged with despair; bad weather with the premonition of a hurricane. And she thought that she finally understood why they named hurricanes after humans. But she lived in Arizona all of her life; she had never seen a hurricane, and she found that fitting because she had never seen anything like him either." He was as tragic as a hurricane. She was as volatile as a tornado. But when Skylar and Scout collided, they were bound for the sun. NOTE: Art for book cover by Budi Kwan.

You'd think that finding out that your all-state football champion boyfriend has been cheating on you with your best friend, that you got rejected from the college of your dreams , and that you're actually not biologically your parents', all in one day, would be crazy; and you'd be totally right. But for Harper Dale, an over privileged 17 year old, it's just a typical Tuesday afternoon. When everything in her life falls apart within the span of five hours, she's lost...until her saving grace appears in the form of a black SUV and three boys she hardly knows. Soon, she's on the road to absolutely nowhere, to find out where she comes from and who she wants to be with four unlikely allies; her obnoxious sworn enemy, his slightly less obnoxious best friends, and an aging go go dancer that may or may not be a sign that she's completely lost her mind. All Harper has to do is get her answers and ignore the fact that she may or may not be feeling head over heels for the one person capable of actually hurting her. Easier said than done.
